KONI's??? or KYB agx's ????? which ones? please HELP!

Have a 96 SE with Intrax springs (1 3/4 drop) I need new shocks BAD...I don't have an insane cash bugget ...what is the advantage to pay more for the Koni's then going for the easier to install KYB's...

IMPORTIANT:: will the KYB's go bad like tokico's?? AND ,..what about a Weapon R coilover kit...will this work on KYB's??

PLEASE LEAVE ANY IMPUT thanks

If you're on a tight budget and don't feel like modifying the front strut housings for Koni inserts then go with AGX shocks. I'm pretty sure they will handle a coilover kit.

What about ride quality between AGX's and Koni's?
I dont mind gutting out my OEM shocks, I just want the best ride.
Are Koni's longer lasting then the AGX's?

I think the ride quality should be nearly the same since both shocks are adjustable. Koni come with a lifetime warranty if you purchase them brand new, I think AGX don't offer that.
